They clean the body and help remove the unrequired fats in the human system and also has many other benefits that can be check below.
Benefits of green juice
Helps in improving immunity: The weight loss juice can definitely help in improving and boosting the immune levels of the body if taken regularly.
Good digestion: Consuming green juices daily such as early in the morning that is an hour before or 30 minutes before breakfast can help improve the movement of bowel movements and help them function well which can cleanse or detoxify the body well.
Weight loss: The green juice if taken on a regular basis along with a good protein diet and controlling the intake of the sugary substances as well as following some weight loss exercises can help burn the body fat as well as belly fat and make one look lean and happy.
Glowing skin: These contribute to the glowing of the skin as the drink or juice contains lots of Vitamin C, Vitamin E depending on the fruits and veggies added to the drink and consuming them often can give a fresh glow to the skin and make us look younger.

Benefits of celery, cucumber
Celery is beneficial to humans in many ways such as in controlling blood sugar levels and thus preventing cataract formations in the eyes. They also help in treating and reducing arthritis that is joint pains as well as lowers blood pressure levels and thus improving heart health.
They also improve the health of the brain and prevent occurring of migraines along with aiding weight loss issues and detoxifying work.
Cucumber too works in a similar way and has similar properties compared to celery. It can easily flush out the toxins from the body and reduce cholesterol levels by improving digestion. It also works well in treating sun-damaged skin and sunburns caused due to overexposure to the sun.
It is the best hydrating vegetable that can be used regularly, it is rich in many minerals and vitamins and is one of the best ingredients to include in daily diets such as salads and weight loss juice recipes as it can work in burning the fat inside the body.

Ginger and lemon benefits
Adding these two ingredients not only give a different taste to the green juice but helps it consume as the juice is extracted by using plain veggies. Adding these ingredients add more nutrients to the plain green drink.
Ginger and lemon work a lot in losing bodyweight. Ginger also helps in treating nausea-like symptoms, keeps away from the cold by giving warmth, it helps with bloating and digestion issues too.
Lemon helps in giving the young look to the skin and helps fight and prevent inflammations as well as reduce cholesterol levels. As all the ingredients work towards reducing cholesterol, they can act as great weight loss ingredients and the best green juice that one could prepare using these ingredients.
Variations
The juice I made here is blended using a blender. The juice can be extracted using a juicer too. The juicer takes away all the fibre content from the fruits and veggies and loses some of the nutrients. Normally, it is best to eat the fruits and vegetables directly in the form of salads as making juices gets rid of some of the valuable nutrients.
But since I am writing about a weight loss juice recipe, it is necessary for me to highlight its pros and cons too. I suggest eating them plain or making the juice in a blender and consume regularly on a daily basis or increasing their frequency.
The variations or enhancements that can be done is by adding spinach or kale to the juice which is healthy and can add additional health benefits. Another recipe where one can use spinach or kale is the vegetable salad recipe for weight loss.
Kale is a perfect choice of vegetable in losing weight and is highly recommended if willing to add some more fresh veggies.
When to drink the juice?
Try to drink the juice 1 hour before breakfast or can be taken during bedtime as well if mornings are not the right time especially when one is in a rush. Drinking early morning have great benefits but can be used any time of the day or during nights before bedtime.
Drinking weekly thrice or daily is not harmful as this is plain juice made with veggies or fruits.
Ingredients
Celery: Using fresh celery stalks to make fresh green juice and also include the small leaves that come attached to the celery. This is one of the best fat cutter veggies to be added to the salads, soups and to juice and smoothie we make.
Cucumber: The cucumber is a very hydrating vegetable and always a must ingredient to add to a weight loss juice as it is an important vegetable to help aid in burning the fat.
Ginger and Lemon: These two ingredients aim to fight off many ailments and have amazing medicinal properties and are most commonly used in healthy drinks.
